Location: (Mandarin) 昆明市石林风景区
(English) Shilin National Scenic Area
In Shilin National Scenic Area, you can visit Greater & Lesser Stone Forest (大石林、小石林) and Naigu Stone Forest (乃古石林). The Greater and Lesser Stone Forest are so huge that it took us at least a few hours visiting only stone in the jungle. Luckily we hire a tour-guide or else we must have got lost in the jungle. The stone forest and a village called Suogeyi have been listed as one of the UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Hence, they are away from industrial area.
Girl in Kun Ming is called as "A-shi-ma" in their language. The stone looked like a girl is believed to have its own fairy tales, a girl who is waiting for her "A-hei-ge".
The details of the story can be read from this link (in mandarin):
We used up lots of energy walking in the huge area of stone forest especially under the hot sun. But this is really a worth and highly recommended place to visit in Kun Ming, Yunnan.
